Rifton – Pacer Gait Trainer – The therapist inspired gait training system
DYNAMIC. READY TO GO EVERYWHERE. Gait training has come a long way since we introduced our first model in the 1980s, and our Pacer continues to evolve and improve to meet our customers’ needs. Over the years your suggestions have helped us keep our design at the cutting edge. WHY DYNAMIC? Walking is complex. When they talk about dynamic gait training they refer to the often unobserved but significant shifts of body and weight that occur in typical gait patterns. In the therapy community there is a growing consensus that a well-positioned pelvis in combination with dynamic move- ment is critical to successful gait training. A specialized gait trainer, like the Pacer, helps achieve this proper positioning and provides the dynamic weight-bearing and weight- shifting needed for a more natural gait pattern and easier stepping.
